This Shonda Rhimes-produced legal thriller spins the classic courtroom drama into something much more addictive and darker. Centered on a criminal defense attorney and law professor Annalise Keating and her five ambitious law students, the story follows them as they get entangled in a murder that is full of secrets and cover-ups. Think Suits meets Scandal but with higher stakes and a lot of suspense. The narrative structure of the show is exceptionally good and keeps the viewers guessing and engaged. The best part of the show is Viola Davis’ powerful, flawed and fiercely commanding performance.

Loosely adapted from Peter Moffat's 2008 BBC series by the same name, Criminal Justice brings intense courtroom drama with a local flavour. The story kicks off with a seemingly simple murder case that eventually becomes a nightmarish legal battle. There’s jailhouse drama, procedural investigation, and emotional depth. Much like Suits, the show dives into the complexity of the justice system but it’s the Indian legal system. And Pankaj Tripathi’s portrayal of lawyer Madhav Mishra is a delight to watch.

One of the longest-running legal dramas, Law & Order is a tight blend of police procedural and courtroom battles. It doesn’t focus on the lawyers’ personal lives like Suits, but it nails the legal drama bit with clarity, consistency, and impact. This show has set the benchmark for legal storytelling. If you liked Suits for its procedural elements and strategic arguments, Law & Order will give a more stripped-down version with an equal payoff.

Billy McBride is a disgraced lawyer who spends most of his time drinking rather than filing motions until a wrongful death lawsuit drags him back into the courtroom. The lawsuit, you ask? Against a massive law firm, he helped build. Imagine a Suits like high stakes with a gritty, noir-like tone. Each season dives into a different legal battle involving everything from corrupt pharmaceutical giants to shady real estate deals, and even tribal land disputes.

One of the most tailor-made shows for Suits fans, White Collar is a blend of crime, charm and complicated bromance. A suave con artist teams up with FBI agent Peter Burke to solve white-collar crimes. His reward? His freedom! Although it’s not a legal drama, it does delve into the justice system but more like in a catching-criminals-way instead of defending-way. Neal’s charm and genius, mentor-mentee heartfelt bond, and the tension between doing what’s right and what’s smart make the show a perfect binge-worthy watch.
